Today we headed to Moyock, NC to visit two locations that had classics and projects for sale (more on that at a later date). It was raining (as you know if you are watching the NASCAR Tuck Series practice right now) and puddling up near the beach road, so we decided to take a shortcut through a neighborhood that was shielded by trees. As we were going through the neighborhood there were tons of large trucks and utility vehicles going around, so when a Freightliner pulled up oppostie us at a light, my insticts were screaming at me but I didn't whip out my camera. I said something like "If this is the SportChassis (the very expensive civilian model), I am never going to forgive myself." And guess what? It was the SportChassis, a humongous pickup truck. This version was one of the P2 or P4 models, which carry a regular-style pickup bed instead of the other models, which come with flat beds and shorter sides. It was Flame Red, and I didn't pull out my camera because most of these Freightliners have strut grilles and this one had a regular one like the one in the photo. So you can't blame me for that, huh? Photo is from the Freightliner website.
